 | I am pretty sure they practice that. Now with the sides of the mountains makes it a lot more difficult though. I have seen pictures of Chinooks picking up soldiers from rooftops like that.

 |  That's just awesome! I've seen stuff LIKE that from my fiancee's cousin, but not like THAT. My cousin who just got back a couple months ago said they do train for these types of scenarios and the training is pretty intense. He wouldn't go into details, but def'lly confirms the training! From what I've seen and heard this is the tip of the iceberg in kickazz sheet the army's been doing! Thanks for the awesome video!

| Trust me, I wasn't trying to downplay his skill, just pointing out that he has practiced that kind of manuever (though not exactly like that) and wasn't just like "hey check this out". It is amazing when you consider the level in which our guys are trained and the things they can do and make it look soooo easy.

  | I don't think that is your average helicopter pilot. Those look like SEALs and the pilot is probably from the 160th SOAR "Night Stalkers" I'm sure all helicopter pilots in the Military are great but who ever was in controls was probably one of the best we have. |
